Ode to Toffifee

Ode to Toffifee: 
A Candy From Childhood No Longer Found in American Stores but Mysteriously Still Available in France


Toffifee, Toffifee
Why did you go away?
You are my second favorite candy:
Creamy, crunchy, shape so handy.
(Snickers, of course, are first,
And Pixie Stix the worst.)
"A hazelnut in caramel..."
chew and crunch that mesh so well
"...with creamy nougat and chocolate"
I want as many as I can get.
Oh, Toffi-fay, Toffi-fee,
I'm so glad to see you at the Monoprix.
You look like an eyeball but taste so good,
I wish I could find you in my SF 'hood.
